The meaning of life

Since the dawn of time, the ultimate question has been asked in a number of ways. Why do we exist? What is the meaning of life? Does God exist? What is the origin of the universe? How does the world exist, and what is its origin or source of creation? Why is there something rather than nothing?

This site offers you the possibility to discuss this fundamental metaphysical question with others. It also allows you to share your opinion and react to other people's points of view. What do you believe in? What do you think is the meaning of life?

Whether you are a believer, an atheist, an agnostic, or a clever mix of all three, you are welcome! Your point of view can be serious, absurd, even bordering on completely nuts. However, the following two things are essential to this dialogue: respect and an open mind.

Respect: you may defend your opinion and try to prove the falsity of another, but it is forbidden to attack its author directly. Fascism and generalisations are strictly verboten!

An open mind: if you can't handle having your convictions being put into question, this might not be the place for you. For this same reason, a sense of humour is highly recommended! If your beliefs forbid their being made fun of, you might not want to participate in this dialogue.

Forum / My meaning of life - Entropy and Us

entropy is the point at which no more order can be formed in the universe - when all atoms and molecules and everything have spread out away from each other so much that something happens to the universe and it starts collapsing (for more info on entropy see Catalyst - an australian tv show.)
life is the most ordered and complicated thing in the universe. by protecting and maintaining life, we prevent the destruction of the universe.

sorry guys, but thats not the truth.
Entropy is not a "point". Entropy itself represents the order of the universe. When the point of absolute disorder in the universe is reached, so that all molecules and atoms are fallen apart, than the entropy is in maximum state. Surely, human kind and all life on earth seems to have low entropy as we consist out of pure order, but to reach this state we produced a lot of entropy. In the net more then we reduced. In conclusion, life accelerates the production of disorder. However, I mean, if there is a given sense of life or even a god he perhaps wants us to fight against our nature of wasting entropy.
